Vermillion. I use them for Skeet and sporting clays. The orange of the clays lights up neon with the vermillion lenses in any lighting condition, but especially at night with the halogen flood lights. As to glare, the angle of the lenses to your face is adjustable up and down. I live in South Florida and the bright sun here never glares off of my lenses. But the color of the lenses does not stop a lot of light from coming into your eye like sunglasses do. So no glare but very little brightness protection.

Vermilion. You can wear them under any lighting conditions from bright sun to night time.

Blue Mirror are the most effective in daytime, and they actually look the best IMO.But you can make your own mind up at: http://www.rei.com/learn/expert-advice/sunglasses.html

Obviously, green is going to be good for dark, but are you going to be able to see your target through the ACOG in the dark? I got the Amber. I plan on shooting during the day. If you think you will be shooting at night, you may want to invest in a laser. I love this scope and have zeroed it and the accuracy is still holding.

Green seems to be a little easier to see during the day. I don't do much night shooting but seems to be about the same. I hope this helps

I have personally found that the reticle is quite visible in bright sunlight. Except while viewing in the direction of the sun during its decline in the late afternoon/early evening, as is the case with any aiming device. I hope you find this information helpful.

Hi, to be completely honest with you the frame is really lightweight. So much so that it gives the impression that it's on the cheap side and will fall off your face because its loose and seems breakable. I bought these because I thought they looked like a good quality similar tp raybans but they unfortunately are not and yes the yellow tint is noticeable but its takes away the computer glare so it needs to be. Hope this helps.

I have had tinted lenses in other spectacles. If there is any tint in these, it is too subtle for me to recognize. I do not notice any effective difference in color between these and the untinted Rx glasses I wear under them. Although my Rx lenses are polycarbonate, I wear these over them to protect them and to provide me additional ejected casing and other foreign object protection. Well constructed and distortion free. Very highly recommended.

Mine are not noticeably yellow at first glance. Bit if you set them down on a piece of white paper, the yellow tint should be obvious when looking at the paper through the lens. If this makes you question their effectiveness, don't. Before using these glasses, my eyes were bloodshot everyday after work (I look at a monitor all day), and school and homework (again, monitors). But ever since I have been wearing these glasses during any time I'm looking at a screen, I have yet to have the dry bloodshot eyes. I recommend these to everyone who extensively has to look at computer monitors. And they're cheaper now than when I bought them! Mine are not noticeably yellow at first glance.

This might actually be a question best answered by the company itself (www.allencompany.net), I have no reservations myself in using them not only for elimination of light glare and "extra" eye and lens protection over my prescription glasses but what I am protecting against are small particles that may be associated to a non-full burn of gun-powder, as well as shell casing from mine or a partner nearby when they eject out of a side port. Larger chunks of wood, sawdust, or small shards of metal from say a missed screw or nail in the wood would be slowed down for sure on impacting these glasses but when it comes to your eyes you can never be to carful.

Hello. I'm a dermatologist. Always looking for good deals for my patients. I just ordered this and don't have it yet so can't comment on quality but here's your answer: if you remember the color wheel from grade school you'll recall that certain colors added together make a neutral brown or beige. Yellow/green camouflages red so these are used on pimples and generalized redness of the face such as seen in rosacea. Violet/purple disguises yellow as seen in a very sallow complexion or the temporary yellow seen in a fading bruise. The other colors in this collection would, I assume, be used as a color matched cover up. This product is probably not intended for eye shadow. Hello. I'm a dermatologist.

HOYA or B&W. It's good to have some ND filters (reduce the amount of light to prevent blown out highlights and to be able to shoot at widest aperture while shooting during bright daytime) or circular polarizer (cut down the reflection/ and some light). UV filter is good only to protect the lens, in my opinion.

I wear my Gamma Ray glasses daily at work to reduce the blue light & glare coming from the two computer monitors I use. They also reduce the brightness of the fluorescent lights which gave me daily headaches. There appears to be some type of reflective coating on them but not like a mirror, I assume this is what blocks the blue light from killing my eyes & has eliminated my headaches. The yellow is not strong/dark.........just enough to be effective. They are not meant to replace sunglasses, more for indoor purpose. Overall I am impressed with them.

If you enjoy frying your retinas, they are great! That being said, if you are looking for shooting glasses that help increase your depth perception, the yellow tints on these glasses work well. As for blocking sun, they dont do much, if anything in that department. You are going to want a pair of glasses with dark or smoke tinted lenses that will cut down on the light coming through.

I had a bad experience with truglo tfos on my springfield xds. It shot VERY low (2.5" at only 10') and sights weren't adjustable. I got so fed up I put on Trijicons and threw the TruGlos in a drawer. I love the Trijicons... Spot on to mfr specs, very visible, and so far totally durable. Of course, I've only had them for two months. But love them so far!!

It depends on the intended use. The green is better during daytime while the red at night. Either way it is an awesome sight. Also it depends on if the person is colorblind which one to choose.

I use the HD Vision glasses for daytime. I use NV night vision glasses at night to prevent headlight glare, and works in fog also.

I don't get it. Mine are awesome. The color, fit, texture all top notch. I've had them on the same 1911 build since I received them. I also wanted a set of black on OD green but accidentally order them the opposite, The customer service was great, I set the set back, it was corrected, No problems. I'm sorry and shocked to hear of your experience.
